I always ramp things up things very slowly. I started with 1mg. and worked up slowly to 3 or so; can't remember how long; I think it was somewhere between 2-3 months, and it was the only new thing introduced at the time. i always try things one at a time, so I'll know which variable is in play. It was 2 years ago: ancient history to a Lyme brain. Wish I could remember the name of the other person who experienced this. The only time (other than now with my present regime) that my patches dramatically shrank was when I began S&C, so though it is an auto- immune thing, inflammation points always to infection, I think. Feverfew discourages the action of mast cells, which are part of the inflammatory process, and fuamric acid seems to be quieting things down a lot.

Be well,
Léna

hmmm that sux that it worked in reverse for you. first neg report on LDN + psoriasis i've read... at least that i remember.
did you jump in at 4.5mg or ease up gradually to some point?
lots of new findings about lower dosing and finding your dose these days.
i have read of oral CS working, and Brooks' topical brew looks good.
glad something is going right!

Hi Bob,
Yes, I did, and because it was suggested for psoriasis. Unfortunately, within a week I suddenly had outbreaks on my face, which I'd never had before in 20 years! I stuck it out for a couple months, with the patches spreading steadily, and then another person mentioned that LDN had done that with him as well, and I finally gave it up. My new regime is very slowly shrinking these back, though, to my great relief. Everyone is different, which I always mention whenever I speak of anything that's worked for me, as I know it may not for others; and in some cases, may even make things worse.

Thanks anyway,
Be well,
Léna

Lena, did you ever try LDN low dose naltrexone?

it is an Rx drug, but it's an old safe studied generic that's cheap and can be purchased off-shore without an Rx.

Hi Dee,
I had a marked diminishing of 2 of my patches: from 'continents' to clusters of small islands, since taking one Feverfew capsule a day (380mg) and applying CS, DMSO, glycerine (Brook's mix) with added gotu kola and feverfew extracts topically. The morning glory around my navel has almost disappeared. This was very encouraging, even though many of my patches stayed the same.

Then, a couple weeks ago, someone told me that fumaric acid (google it) is something people with psoriasis have deficiency; that one can try one cap nightly for 10 days, and if that doesn't make substantial change, increase to 2, then 3, etc. up to 7, in increments of 10 days.

After one week, some of my more stubborn patches were beginning to break up, scales were building up much less quickly, surrounding redness was fading to pink and now I'm doing 2 per night. I'm hopeful. I've tried everything and this is the first thing that seems to really work...for me. We're all different, of course.

Be well,
Léna
